Greetings from Cambridge! We feel smarter already. We have had a great time here, and we haven’t really done anything yet.
We arrived in Cambridge on Sunday and had a lovely walk-through, pre-dinner social with neighbors, and dinner with our homeowners. We got a thorough overview of their beautiful home, an introduction to the beautiful Hugo and his care needs, and some great ideas for our extended visit. We are here for about 6 weeks — what a gift!
I have fallen in love with the area, as it is a dream for runners. There are so many pedestrian and bike paths, and the area is so active. The homeowners have bikes that we can use, so we are looking forward to biking as well. With Bob’s current hip issue, biking seems to be the gentlest form of manual transportation for him at the moment.
We began our sit about mid-afternoon on Monday and spent yesterday settling in and catching up on work, travel planning, and stocking up on groceries. We have learned that there are a lot of sculptures around town, and we passed a number of them on the way to the store.
Tomorrow afternoon we have a guided punting tour on the River Cam.
